#OurAlabamaHome: Birmingham

March 27, 2017

AHFA stopped in Alabama's largest city recently to collect customer stories. While in Birmingham, it seemed fitting to check out how spring is blooming at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens - 67.5 acres of botanical gardens located adjacent to Lane Park at the southern foot of Red Mountain. The gardens are home to over 12,000 different types of plants, 25 unique gardens, more than 30 works of original outdoor sculpture, and several miles of walking paths.Birmingham Botanical Gardens, the most visited free attraction in Alabama, is open daily, offering free admission to more than 350,000 yearly visitors.

#OurAlabamaHome is AHFA's theme for 2017. We regularly take road trips to visit with customers who have bought their home or found affordable housing because of AHFA programs. As we travel to visit these customers, we're also highlighting the city or town they live in to celebrate Alabama and illustrate how AHFA's programs reach all across the state. Together, our customers' testimonials bring #OurAlabamaHome to life. Keep track of our travels on AHFA's Facebook page and here on our website.
